//: I'll throw some style conventions here for want of a better place for them.
//: As a rule I hate style guides. Do what you want, that's my motto. But since
//: we're dealing with C/C++, the one big thing we want to avoid is undefined
//: behavior. If a compiler ever encounters undefined behavior it can make
//: your program do anything it wants.
//:
//: For reference, my checklist of undefined behaviors to watch out for:
//:   out-of-bounds access
//:   uninitialized variables
//:   use after free
//:   dereferencing invalid pointers: null, a new of size 0, others
//:
//:   casting a large number to a type too small to hold it
//:
//:   integer overflow
//:   division by zero and other undefined expressions
//:   left-shift by negative count
//:   shifting values by more than or equal to the number of bits they contain
//:   bitwise operations on signed numbers
//:
//:   Converting pointers to types of different alignment requirements
//:     T* -> void* -> T*: defined
//:     T* -> U* -> T*: defined if non-function pointers and alignment requirements are same
//:     function pointers may be cast to other function pointers
//:
//:       Casting a numeric value into a value that can't be represented by the target type (either directly or via static_cast)
//:
//: To guard against these, some conventions:
//:
//: 0. Initialize all primitive variables in functions and constructors.
//:
//: 1. Minimize use of pointers and pointer arithmetic. Avoid 'new' and
//: 'delete' as far as possible. Rely on STL to perform memory management to
//: avoid use-after-free issues (and memory leaks).
//:
//: 2. Avoid naked arrays to avoid out-of-bounds access. Never use operator[]
//: except with map. Use at() with STL vectors and so on.
//:
//: 3. Valgrind all the things.
//:
//: 4. Avoid unsigned numbers. Not strictly an undefined-behavior issue, but
//: the extra range doesn't matter, and it's one less confusing category of
//: interaction gotchas to worry about.
//:
//: Corollary: don't use the size() method on containers, since it returns an
//: unsigned and that'll cause warnings about mixing signed and unsigned,
//: yadda-yadda. Instead use this macro below to perform an unsafe cast to
//: signed. We'll just give up immediately if a container's ever too large.
//: Basically, Mu is not concerned about this being a little slower than it
//: could be. (https://gist.github.com/rygorous/e0f055bfb74e3d5f0af20690759de5a7)
//:
//: Addendum to corollary: We're going to uniformly use int everywhere, to
//: indicate that we're oblivious to number size, and since Clang on 32-bit
//: platforms doesn't yet support multiplication over 64-bit integers, and
//: since multiplying two integers seems like a more common situation to end
//: up in than integer overflow.
